Other Types of Concerns?
If you have a non-academic concern about a student, there are different ways to get support, for yourself and/or the student. Here is information about some key campus resources:
- Mental Health First Aid tip sheet
- Dean of Students Office
- Student Counseling Services
- Student Health Center
- Office of Equal Opportunity and Title IX (including Title IX matters)
- Center for Accessibility and Disability Resources
- Campus Ministry
One good way to initiate support is to complete a . This form will allow the student to get support from a variety of resources on campus. Here, you can share information about behavioral and emotional concerns, care and concern for a student鈥檚 physical health, Title IX concerns, bias related incidents, and many other kinds of concerns. Please note: while the form currently is titled 鈥淚ncident Reporting Form,鈥 it is not just for 鈥渋ncidents.鈥 You may choose the 鈥渋nformational鈥 option as a way to register whatever concerns you have about a student.
Submitting a student concern or incident report form will help the Dean of Students Office and others to have a more complete picture of what鈥檚 happening with a student, since often other concerns have also arisen about the same student. Try not to think of it as 鈥渞eporting on鈥 a student. Instead, think of it as 鈥渃onnecting the dots鈥 and empowering a network of support to mobilize to assist the student and you.
If you鈥檙e not sure how to express your concern, or how to refer a student, consider the following:
Name what you鈥檙e observing.
鈥淚 noticed ____. Can you tell me more about that?鈥
鈥淚 can see that you鈥檙e upset...can I connect you to someone?鈥
Assure and reassure you want to be supportive.
鈥淗ow can I best support you?鈥
鈥淚 want to make sure you have all the resources you need, so I鈥檓 going to refer you
to the Dean of Students Office, who may reach out to you.鈥
Ask open ended questions and use active listening.
鈥淭ell me how things are going for you?鈥
